Compressed natural gas (CNG)
²Typical compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel system shown.
1.Fuel tank ÐCNG fuel cylinder. Depending upon application, more
than one fuel tank may be used.
2.Solenoid tank valve ÐOne electronically-actuated (normally closed)
solenoid valve that will automatically stop the flow of CNG from the fuel
tank(s) when the engine is turned off.
3.CNG fueling point ÐAllows refueling of the CNG fuel tank(s) using
standard automotive natural gas dispensing equipment.
4.Coalescent fuel filter ÐRemoves impurities from the natural gas
before it enters the high pressure fuel regulator.
5.High pressure fuel regulator ÐReduces fuel pressure from the fuel
tank(s) to 690 kPa (100 psi).
6.Computer and metering valve assembly (Compuvalve)
ÐControls the quantity of natural gas being delivered to the engine as
vehicle speed and load requirements demand.
7.Fuse and relay module ÐContains the necessary electrical fuses and
relays required to operate your Gaseous Fuel Injection System.
8.Fuel selector switch ÐAllows you to select the fuel you want to use
(CNG or unleaded gasoline).

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
²Typical liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) fuel system shown.
1.Fuel tank ÐLPG fuel cylinder.
2.Outage valve Ð80% outage valve prevents overfilling of the LPG fuel
tank(s).
3.LPG fueling point ÐAllows refueling of the LPG fuel tank(s) using
standard automotive LPG dispensing equipment.
4.Supply valve ÐSome applications are equipped with fuel tank(s) that
have a manually-actuated supply valve which can be used to stop the
flow of LPG to the engine, if necessary.
5.Fuel filter ÐRemoves impurities from the LPG fuel before it enters
the fuel vaporizer/regulator.
6.Fuel vaporizer/regulator ÐHelps convert the LPG from a liquid to a
gaseous state. Provides gaseous propane at a constant operating pressure
to the Compuvalve.
7.Computer and metering valve assembly (Compuvalve)
ÐControls the quantity of gaseous propane being delivered to the engine
as vehicle speed and load requirements demand.
8.Fuse and relay module ÐContains the necessary electrical fuses and
relays required to operate your Gaseous Fuel Injection System.
9.Fuel selector switch ÐAllows you to select the fuel you want to use
(LPG or unleaded gasoline).
